    No way a 747 can do an aileron roll; the engine pylons aren't designed to handle the side loads and the engine oiling systems would fail. A barrel roll, maybe, since the stresses are constrained to 1G aimed at the bottom of the plane, but it would be suicidal to do one that close to the ground.

    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.
